Thoughts
A running list of things on my mind.

Mythos gets a lot of attention bc it’s able to detect cybersecurity vulnerabilities better than most cybersecurity experts. Note that mythos wasn’t trained specifically for cybersecurity. The reason it’s good at cybersecurity is bc it’s good at everything. Most cybersecurity experts I’ve met are pretty smart. Definitely smarter than the average. So if mythos is so much better than they, what do you think it will do to mind-numbing office jobs? I get less and less convinced that it will take a lot of time for AI to diffuse through the economy. Historically, this was true for technological innovation bc the improvement of email over fax machine was marginal (maybe a speedup by 2-3x?). That’s why they still fucking use them in German government. However, this isn’t true here. Mythos could probably do 90% of jobs much better than me. By a magnitude of 10-100x.
